Abstract
- In the past decade, there have been many efforts to understand the species interplay with biodiversity in cyclic games within the macro and microscopic levels. In this direction, mobility and intraspecific competition have been found to be the main factors promoting coexistence in spatially extended systems. In this paper, we explore the relevant effect of asymmetric competitions coupled with mobility on the coexistence of cyclically competing species. By examining the coexistence probability, we have found that mobility can facilitate coexistence in the limited cases of asymmetric competition and can be well predicted by the basin structure of the deterministic system. In addition, it is found that mobility can have beneficial and harmful effects on coexistence when all competitions occur asymmetrically. We also found that the coexistence in the spatial dynamics ultimately becomes a global attractor. We hope to provide insights into the associated effects of asymmetric interplays on species coexistence in a spatially extended system and understand the biodiversity of asymmetrically competitive species under more complex competition structures.
